+<WRAP important>
+Oct 2019: The XMPP bot has been discontinued indefinitely.
+</WRAP>
+The Minecraft chat bot was built on Python 2 for XMPP instant messaging networks. Both of these technologies are, perhaps, past their prime. Support for Python 2 is slated to end on [[https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0373/|1 Jan 2020]]. As of 2019, most large cloud providers have shuttered their XMPP gateways. This has left the user-base for this bot quite small. Our Minecraft bot has been discontinued for now. If there is demand for it, perhaps we'll bring it back.
+You can always use the [[https://pypi.org/project/mcstatus/|mcstatus]] program directly to query our Minecraft server.
